Happy Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day! Dr. King was a trailblazing civil rights leader who was deeply committed to building a more equitable society. In times like these, it is more important than ever to honor his legacy by fighting for justice and equality. #mlkjrday

The US Senate held a hearing on Wednesday calling into question the safety of medication abortion. Not only does medication abortion have decades of research proving its safety and efficacy, it is also vital for giving access to life-saving reproductive care. #reproductiverights #mifepristone

As we come closer to the one year anniversary of Trump’s presidency, I have been reflecting on the core values this nation was founded upon. So for this #funfactfriday, I thought it would be a good idea to go over the Bill of Rights.

This week, it was announced that Ohio will be receiving $200 million from the Rural Health Transformation Program. This is nowhere near enough to make up for the catastrophic cuts to Medicaid at the federal level.

In light of reports of ICE in Central Ohio, I want to make it clear that as a citizen and immigrant I am against these attacks on our immigrant community. America is a country of immigrants and we need to protect the newest immigrants.

Today, we remember the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, honor the more than 2,400 service members and civilians we lost on that “date which will live in infamy,” and recommit ourselves to caring for our veterans and their families.

SB 293 adds unnecessary hurdles to voting and especially absentee ballots, making it harder for seniors, students, and working families to make their voices heard. The right to vote is a cornerstone of our democracy, and this bill threatens that fundamental right. We must protect our democracy.

Today is the 70th anniversary of the founding of the AFL-CIO, which is the largest federation of unions in the world. The American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations decided to merge together on this day in 1955 to make their collective power even stronger.
